Doheny the experience

[PerryC]

Rickey,
I have tossed a few flies from the kayak, but haven't gotten any bass or hali's as of yet. How does the Hobie with the peddle assy compare to the others like the X-Factor for when you're stripping line? Do you use a basket or sit sideways or ?? to keep the line out of the peddles.

I have a ok 8wt that I have used nearshore, but was thinking that it may be a bit skimpy for something of real size and was considering a 9 or maybe a 10wt. I FF'd from my old FnD at Cherry Beach for hali's, but didn't hook up although the bite was slow when we were out there. If you were going for them, what type of line/head would you use? I was using a Type lll, but maybe a length of leadcore would be better for working 30' or less.
